Chapter 2545
To the other onlookers, something mystical just happened on the battlefield.
A phantom seemed to have materialized behind Maki. Its hands gripped the longsword alongside his
own as they both released a powerful frontal slash. The essence of swordsmanship within that slash was
able to break the weak-willed people from inside out
Carol, who happened to witness that slash from outside the mourning hall, crumpled to the ground
immediately. She almost soiled herself out of fear.
Clang!
At that moment, a spark appeared within the sea of darkness brought by the phantom. That spark
transformed into a streak of blade glow
immediately, successfully blocking Maki’s ultimate slash.
Clang!
As a result, Harvey was sent flying backward. Once he landed on the ground, he quickly took three steps
backward to shake off the excess momentum of Maki’s slash.
“Interesting. This isn’t the prowess of someone who has just reached the level of God of War.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHarvey looked genuinely curious at the moment.
“You actually managed to reach this point with the Yin-Yang Technique. I assume the Gods of War to the
Island Nation’s military faction aren’t a match for you right now, yes? However, to think that you, a King of
Arms, are able to reach the level of God of War, not to mention the fact that you still possess incredible
powers… You definitely have a death wish. After this fight, your body will collapse, and you’ll be
crippled for the rest of your life. Am I right?”
Harvey’s curiosity knew no bounds. He had heard of the forbidden arts, but he didn’t know
much about them.
Those arts were similar to the Yin-Yang Technique. They were spells that allowed the users to achieve
temporary breakthroughs into new power levels. In reality, the usage of forbidden arts was equivalent to
overdrawing one’s potential in advance. If they were used for the purpose of breaking through to a
drastically advanced power level, the backlash was even
worse.
For Maki, his body would instantly collapse the moment the battle was over. If he were to
survive the ordeal, he would be reduced to a useless cripple.
“York, I don’t care about my own life as long as I can kill you!” Maki roared furiously.
His expression was cold and merciless. He knew that time was running out for him, so he raised his
longsword and rushed toward Harvey once again.
Swish!
Maki released another powerful slash. At that moment, he had already lost his mind. He
abandoned all thoughts of defending himself, leaving his form defenseless and vulnerable. Instead, he
started slashing at Harvey aggressively with wide, long strikes.
Clang!
Harvey swung his longsword at a seemingly random moment. Coincidentally, it made contact with Maki’s
sword handle.
Shocked, the elderly man couldn’t help but take a few steps backward. He stared at Harvey with an
incredulous expression on his face. Despite
having to pay a huge price for the power boost, Maki didn’t expect to see Harvey counter all of his moves
effortlessly.
This could only mean one thing.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHarvey was also a God of War, and he was the real deal.
Despair flooded Maki’s heart at that moment.
To think that Harvey was able to become a God of War at such a young age… If the elderly man hadn’t
used his trump card, he wouldn’t be able to reach Harvey’s proximity.
Furthermore, once Maki snapped out of his current state, it would be extremely easy for Harvey to kill
him. Perhaps a slap would suffice.
Maki gritted his teeth, refusing to grant himself a moment of respite. Instead, he raised his longsword and
rushed out once more with the intention to strike Harvey down.
“You recycle the same combo over and over again. How boring.”
Upon noticing the strike, impatience flashed across Harvey’s face for once. At the next moment, he
stepped forward voluntarily and flipped his longsword upside down to point the blunt side upward. Then,
he struck.
Whack!
Harvey’s slash was akin to a brutal slap that made contact with Maki’s cheek.
“No!”
Maki trembled in fright, eyes wide in disbelief. The next moment he knew, he found himself flying
backward uncontrollably.
